“In one of the most notable moments in sports history, Kenyan runner Abel Mutai was just a few feet from the finish line, but became confused with the signage and stopped thinking he had completed the race.
A Spanish athlete, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him, and after realizing what was happening, he started shouting at the Kenyan for him to continue running; but Mutai didn't understand his Spanish.
Fernandez eventually caught up to him and instead of passing him, he pushed him to victory.
A journalist asked Ivan, "Why did you do that?"
Ivan replied, “My dream is that someday we can have a kind of community life where we push and help each other to win.” The journalist insisted “But why did you let the Kenyan win?" Ivan replied, "I didn't let him win, he was going to win.” The journalist insisted again, “But you could have won!”Ivan looked at him & replied, “But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor of that medal?
What would my Mom think of that?”
Values are transmitted from generation to generation.
What values are we teaching our children?
Let us not teach our kids the wrong ways to WIN.”

The worst leaders are those who take the job of many for his/her own. The best leaders are those who have the capacity to sufficiently mobilize and empower everyone under his leadership, inspiring them to be the best version of themselves.
We move forward as one! 🇵🇭 #KardingPH
This man is the turning point in our history. The reset button. Game changer. Unorthodox in his ways, unpredictable in his decision-making. He held the fort when it was being ravaged by a pandemic. Never giving an inch. Now it’s time for the next leader to continue the fight. 🇵🇭
21 trains running for MRT2 the other day. First time they fielded this many units! Sumitomo must be credited for the awesome job of rehabilitation of the MRT system and its not even completed yet.
Still baffles me why Sumitomo, a reputable company was replaced in the 1st place.
Filipinos have never been truly free: we've been slaves of foreign powers and a handful of oligarchic families for so long, we mistook our slavery for freedom. https://t.co/X34hDaL75x
The jeepney driver who tested positive for shabu should be jailed ans banned for life to driver’s license.
Still a midern more reliable and safe jeepneys needed foe public transport.
The horrific accident wherein jeepney plowed into a group of students crossing on a pedestrian lane shows the need to modernize the jeepneys soonest.
So sad for the casualty and those who were injured.
As we see the government's lax response to the 2019-nCoV outbreak, it's clear that we shouldn't put politicians in DoH.
Duque is more of a politician than a doctor. https://t.co/X34hDaL75x

Iraq war veteran: "The Marines took it upon themselves to shoot at, beat, rob, rape, kill whoever they wanted to. And that's being proposed on the news as a few bad apples, an isolated incident."
LISTEN TO THESE VETERANS SPEAKING OUT!

Happy for the performance of our athletes! I just hope we can send more athletes when other countries host SEA Games so more chances of podiums.
As i pointed out, marami pa ang opisyal at staff than athletes in some SEA Games! How can we win that way?
